Margaret went to the priest telling him that she saw Lord Jesus, that he blessed her and gave her peace. The priest did not comment on the vision. As it was repeated for a second and a third time, the priest kept silent. Thus, she said, “I didn’t hear a comment on the visions I enjoyed.”

“If He’s Christ ask Him to tell you a sin I committed last week.” The priest commented.

The following week, the lady told the priest, “Lord Jesus appeared to me and filled my life with joy. I said to Him, “Father wants You to tell me a sin he committed a week before.” My Lord said that He forgave you. Thus, He forgot it since when He forgives He forgets.”

The priest was silent for a while then said, “Your vision is true daughter. He’s a forgiving God not like men. When He forgives He forgets.”

→ English translation of the story here at St-Takla.org: رأيت ربي يسوع!

Thank You Lord, You are wonderful in Your love.

You are wonderful O God in treating me.

You wish to forgive me my sins. Thus, You reproach me no more for my sins or transgressions.

You are a True Heavenly Father.
